Are you talking about ceiling fans? If so, I've found that their fan switches work flawlessly - no need to buy any kind of fan with smarts built-in: https://www.casetawireless.com/us/en/products/dimmers-switch...

(Search the page for "Original Smart Fan Speed Control Switch", there's seemingly no way to link directly to the requisite page section... which is a thing I could rant about but will not).

Sorry, I should have been clearer. Those switches work great with fans that are already hardwired for a switch in the wall but a lot of modern fans (in my experience, maybe because I was buying cheap!) don't bother with that and have their own wireless system of some variety to control fan speed, lights etc.

My solution to that was to buy a Zigbee controller to go inside the fan. I wish Lutron sold some kind of standalone fan controller you could shove in there but alas.

Ah I see, that makes sense.
